showed it to be more than
seven years old.
It must be one of the ori-
ginal six trout which were
stocked along with 378 redfish,
I5 flounder and 23 pinfish back
n 1964 to determine if
species could live in a saline in-
land lake.
Little has been heard of the
pioneer transplants.
The catch is important be-
cause it indicates that a salt
water fish can reach maturity
and survive in inland water.
There also exists the remote
possibility that it may be able
to spawn but department bio-
logists note that should spawn-
ing activities take place, there
is no assurance that the eggs
would be fertile or that any
young fish would survive
should the eggs develop and
hatch.

DOUBLE VISION can be dangerous. But it appears that quadruple vision can
be downright pleasant. Sue Woodford of Sarasota seems to be everywhere, dem-
onstrating safety equipment which boaters should be familiar with. The items
shown include: ample line, anchor, compass, life jacket, lantern, bilge pump,
fire extingisher, flare kit, first aid kit, horn and paddle. It’s Sue’s way of re-
minding boaters that Safe Boating Week is July 2-8.

24 Drown In
Texas Waters On
Memorial Holiday
Austin — Parks and Wildlife
officials had the dismal task
last week of counting water-
oriented fatalities from the
Memorial Day weekend.
Over the four-day holiday,
from 26 May, to 29 May, 24
people lost their lives in Texas'
waters.
The warm weather brought
out swimmers and 19 unfortun-
ate bathers died in swimming
accidents. One life was lost iri
a boating accident.
Perhaps Ihe saddest statistic
is that 13 fatalities were 18
years of age or younger.
A total of 121 Texans lost
their lives in the water during
May of 1972; that's 30 more
than in May of last year.
